29. I put mine on unconsciously now
Wed Apr 7, 2021, 07:18 PM
Apr 2021

I keep it in my front left pocket. Whenever someone comes walking the other way down the sidewalk, hand goes in pocket without me looking up from my phone. Same if I approach any kind of store or business. Muscle memory is put the car in park, open door, put on mask, walk towards business.

I found a very comfortable mask on Amazon that doesn't bother the slightest.

I imagine I'll keep doing it for quite awhile. Doesn't hurt. Haven't been sick - not even a cold - all year. Party bonus.
